Is there a (simple) way to export the results of a
\startMPpage ... \stopMPpage
directly to a svg file?

My current route is to import the pdf into inkscape, group path objects 
by stroke color, then save the result as svg and translate that into a 
hpgl format for the pen plotter.

I guess/hope there is some hidden switch dumping the MPpage directly 
into a hpgl file ;-)
